Postcards for Sale - help support a local NGO

This is where you can buy and sell anything you want in Cambodia! There is no 'Craigslist Cambodia,' so this is the next best thing. Most items for sale are in Phnom Penh, but this is a buy and sell section for the whole country. Many expats and tourists have new and used items to sell, so anyone can list them here. CEO has no part in these sales, so buyers and sellers need to get in contact with each other themselves. You're always welcome to list items you're giving away for free, as we encourage the community to give when they can. Amazon and eBay ship select items to Cambodia, but you save time and money when you do things locally.

Postcards for Sale - help support a local NGO

Post by Postcard_Seller »

Pop-Art style postcards for sale, 1 set (8 postcards) contains the images below and costs $10. High quality, matt finish printing on textured card.

Sale proceeds go toward the NGO Care for Cambodia which provides educational support for kids in rural Cambodia.

Delivery in PP can be negotiated - potentially be able to delivery personally if convenient, or by Grab. Any hotels/shops/bars/cafe’s interested in selling on our behalf contact me for wholesale options.

You can contact me by private message. Or via email/telegram (details on attached image)

Edit: error with uploading image… ‘imgur is over capacity, try later’ maybe because I am a new user? not sure if there is another way. Can someone advise?

Sorry about that, it's a third party plugin that's having issues, but you can use https://postimages.org/ to upload your images, and it will give you a hotlink for forums to copy and paste here.

Unfortunately, post cards are now becoming a rarity and are, by many, considered obsolete, given the ubiquitous use of cell/mobile phone cameras and the plethora of apps from which you can instantly send photos from your phone to recipients in virtually any corner of the world.

In reality, quality post cards are very hard to find these days and have almost gone the way of the DoDo and the Dinosaur.

Yeah I don’t disagree with that. Traditional postcard usage from tourists is way, way down - understandably.
But what is still strong is the card market, greeting card, notelets etc. The handwritten note is still popular, especially amongst females.
These cards can be used as postcards, ‘get-well soon’, ‘thank-you’, ‘sorry I missed you’ etc. etc.
I’m not expecting many tourist purchases, but they are a bit quirky (I think) and different from what else is out there. They could even be used as small art pieces to brighten up a dull area.
If it brings in a few quid for the NGO then it’s worth the effort.

Happy to take advise from anyone on the best way to get them out there 👍🏼

Google seems a little threadbare, might lead one to suspect it's some shoddy tinpot, fly by night, grifters dream self perpetuating its raison d'etre in a manner that self serves its organizers but nobody else...

The NGO is well established and registered in Cambodia for over 25 years. We have a decent online presence (our website is my first hit when I Google ‘care for Cambodia’), mature social media (FB and Instagram).
If you are genuinely interested then it isn’t hard to find out more about us. I think all the information you requested is publicly available online.

That pic from Google maps is a joke. Pretty annoying.
I had set up the location on GMaps several years back then a neighbouring landowner uploaded hundred of photos of their scrubland and tagged it as our location.
I managed to get loads removed but Google seems to have now retained a pic of the scrubland and removed our office building pic. I didn’t know that - so your response has helped. Thank you.
So that will go back on my list to get corrected!

Yeah, I did read the website but obviously you guys write that.

I'm not genuinely interested, more idly curious
